Manual pumps

I saw some posts yesterday about the Medela Harmony manual pump and how much some of you liked them. I got one as a gift a few months ago buy hadn't opened it yet since I use the Medela PISA whenever I pump. I decided to get it out of the box last night and keep it by the bed DD has been sleeping longer at night and I've been waking up engorged and leaking so I thought I'd use it to relieve pressure. Well I love it! I fed DD at 4am from the left side. When I put her back down I pumped the right side with barely any effort for 10 minutes and got 5 ounces! And my hand didn't even get tired, lol. Just wanted to put this out there for anyone who may be thinking of getting one; do it!

Yes, I would definitely take it for something like that. Much easier.

I have the Harmony as well, and love it!  It's so easy to use when you just need to pump quickly.

I hate pumping but the manual pump does come in super handy to relieve pressure and slowly build up a freezer stash.
